Looks to me like TiVo is planning a big announcement at Cedia this year. TiVo likes the press they get at Cedia and actually won Best for Cedia award last year for the Roamio line.

Since the Roamio is new, we can't expect a new box - so something else "Big" must be on the horizon. Since the spring release just came out, I wouldn't expect a simple software update - so what would you consider big enough for a "Big" announcement?

September lines up with the android streaming rumor if they manage to hold their schedule, which they might. Aside from portable android support, Tivo may have a larger "anywhere" strategy in the works. (PC? Roku? Fire TV?) But that might be too much, too soon.

There haven't been too many other rumors floating around. An HDD increase is an obvious guess, but would be easy enough to do without triggering the rumor mills. (til now, of course.)

Basking in Roamio's glow, Tivo's been quiet on the product front for the last year. I kinda like that something's stirring again.

Super HD is Netflix's version of 1080p
Ultra HD is Netflix's version of 4K

Netflix's Ultra HD 4K streams are only viewable on 2014 4K TVs that include a built-in H.265/HEVC decoder.

If there was really any content - blue-ray and such, I would consider a 4k projector for my 110" media room screen, but I wouldn't waste my money on anything less than 60" / 70". And since you can't see the difference on a reasonable sized screen, 50" or smaller, it will never hit critical mass. Content will not be available, no content means no device sales, no device sales means another dead product. 3D all over again.

CE manufacturers are trying to recapture the HDTV craze, and they will try to push any product down your throat to find that market - don't be a lemming, pay for what brings value not for what some marketing guy tells you to buy.

You make some good points, but I wouldn't say "never" for 4K. The problem with 3D is that it can't really be added retroactively. Some equipment can do a crappy simulation of it, but real 3D must be captured when the content is first created. The perfect vehicle for 3D is computer-generated video like Avatar or new animated features. There will never be (good) 3D versions of Chinatown, Citizen Kane, The Godfather, etc, because it's impossible to add the second viewpoint necessary for stereoscopic viewing. OTOH, good film stock probably can be used to create 4K versions of great movies from the past, once 4K TVs and some kind of ultra Blu-ray are available.

If I understood the use case, the Cloud DVR was really focused at smaller cable companies - not retail.

You could very well be correct, but I am hoping for something we have been waiting for. I know a huge number of people on this board have been waiting on Android Stream - and I am pretty sure that will hit this fall. But I am really hopeful for a new PC TiVo Deskstop / streaming client.

Ultra HD or UHD is officially what the format is called. It is not the Netflix version. It is the consumer format of so called 4K. UHD is actually below 4K resolution.

Whatever TiVo does announce, it will probably be two to three years until it's available. UNless it is something simple like a larger hard drive. If they had a 5TB Roamio I just might need to sell my current Roamio Pro and get it.
